#MedSky #HCWvsHunger, the time is upon us! Results of the 2025 competition have been certified. First, let's thank the HS/college students who handle all of the social, tech, & data for the competition. They have worked tirelessly thru final exams, illness, college application deadlines, & more! /1

I'll share our other words of thanks at the end to get to the #HCWvsHunger results without further ado!! This year, all of you raised $1,038,289! Prior to 2025, our record was 2024 when we raised $812,662. Incredible! And all of us did this together despite the Twitter exodus! /2 #MedSky

In 3rd place, with $80,842, is the #IDSky team, #MEALioidosis. (FYI Melioidosis is due to gram neg Burkholderia pseudomallei, spread via contaminated air/soil/water, may follow weather disasters, & causes pneumonia, fever, etc...& then *MEAL* like #HCWvsHunger, get it? They’d want you to know. 🧠) 5/

In 2nd place, with $336,162, is #KidVengers. This is unreal. They're an unmerged team of pediatricians with big hearts & a ground game like no one else. (Pro tip: Hire them to run your election campaign if they ever leave #MedSky.) They've WON 3 out of 6 #HCWvsHunger competitions! /6

And the winners of #HCWvsHunger 2025, with $373,050, are the multidisciplinary #cancer care team, #DiagnoseAndTreats, representing #OncSky, #RadOncSky, #PathSky, & #Radiology. Amazing to have had a single team raise more 💰 in 2025 than in Year 1 OVERALL! Strong work across the board, #MedSky! /7

The full final 2025 #HCWvsHunger leaderboard is below & now online at HCWvsHunger.org as we speak. We are SO SO proud of all of your hard work & #generosity! Your individual & collective success was more than we could have ever imagined. #MedSky /8

As his donation to his chosen hunger charity was huge even before any match, matching funds were not credited to any 2025 #HCWvsHunger team & will be used to support donor challenges in subsequent years. We've been calling it the Coco Miracle Fund (hope that's ok with him 🐶😍). #MedSky /10

And now our thanks! #HCWvsHunger's leadership team is small but mighty: co-founders @shematologist.medsky.social & @tmprowell.bsky.social HEAVILY AIDED by HS/college students Gavin, Isla, & River Gleeson, & Simran & Sameer Kheterpal. Self-effacing ⭐️ Dr. Sachin Kheterpal mentors the tech teens. /11

Thank you to our 3 #MedSky spouses for running LITERALLY EVERYTHING THAT IS NOT #HCWvsHUNGER for the entire competition so that we can make this happen each yr. Thank you to all the team captains who worked tirelessly around the clock despite competing demands of work & family. /12
